Genshin Impact Version 7.0 enters its second week with players continuing to explore Snezhnaya, the long-awaited frozen nation connected to the Fatui and Cryo Archon. HoYoverse released Everwinter Without Mercy on August 12, adding one of the most narratively important regions since the game's original launch.

0 represents an entire new chapter in Teyvat's long-running central storyline.
